Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Upadacitinib in Patients with Psoriatic Arthritis: 5-Year Results from the Phase 3 SELECT-PsA 1 Study.
Article in Rheumatology and therapy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03104400 (A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Study Comparing Upadacitinib), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract
introductionIn the phase 3 SELECT-PsA 1 study, treatment with upadacitinib (UPA), an oral Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor, improved signs and symptoms of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) from weeks 12 through 152. We now report the long-term extension phase, evaluating safety and efficacy of upadacitinib versus adalimumab (ADA) up to week 260 (~ 5 years).
methodsData on treatment-emergent adverse events and all primary and secondary endpoints were collected through week 260 for patients who received a placebo or ≥ 1 dose of UPA at either 15 mg (UPA15) or 30 mg (UPA30) daily, or ADA 40 mg every other week. For non-radiographic binary endpoints, both observed data and non-responder imputation methods were used, whereas for radiographic binary endpoints, the observed data method was used. For continuous endpoints, observed data and mixed-effects model repeated-measures analyses were employed.
resultsA total of 1704 patients received at least one dose of study drug, with 983 (57.7%) completing 260 weeks of treatment. The safety profile of UPA through week 260 was consistent with data from weeks 104 and 152. UPA treatment was associated with higher rates of serious infections, herpes zoster, lymphopenia, creatine kinase elevation, and non-melanoma skin cancer compared with ADA treatment. The exposure-adjusted incidence rates for major adverse cardiovascular events (n/100 PY [95% CI]: UPA15, 0.4 [0.2, 0.8]; UPA30, 0.4 [0.1, 0.9]; ADA, 0.3 [0.1, 0.7]) and venous thromboembolism (UPA15, 0.2 [0.0, 0.5]; UPA30, 0.4 [0.1, 0.9]; ADA, 0.2 [0.0, 0.6]) were low and comparable across treatment groups. Efficacy improvements observed with UPA at weeks 56 and 104 were maintained through week 260 and were comparable to those achieved with ADA.
conclusionsThe safety profile of UPA over 5 years remained consistent with that observed at weeks 104 and 152, with no new signals identified.
